Chapter 405: + - 405+
Nikolai adjusted his overcoat as he got out of his car, he silently nodded to the men that had accompanied him. They were seated in the driver and passenger’s seats, nodding in return with cold expressions.

He would essentially be asking Asher for a bit of a favor, so it was only right that he would be the one to seek out the other Mafia King.
The sky was dark but the club was blinding with flashing neon lights, the day was only beginning for the club.
The bouncers did a double take at the sight of him, one of them turning to the side to say a few quiet words into the device in his ear.
They didn’t try to stop Nikolai, parting to let him pass but they had to report his presence over to the necessary authorities regardless.
He strode into the dim club, unsurprised when he was immediately approached by Jael. The second-in-command was just as unruffled to see him.
It had been a few weeks since the shit-storm of a camping trip, Nikolai wasn’t pleased that seeing the Beta reminded him of that.
"Come with me," Jael said shortly without exchanging formalities. There was no need to, there were no hostilities between the two Mafia Houses at the moment, but that didn’t mean they were allies.
Nikolai followed without a word, getting further and further away from the noise, lights, and the mixture of mingling scents and booze.
Asher’s office was well removed from the noise of the club, the walls had to be insulated, the decor lavish.
